Brian's Late Start

Hello everyone, this is Brian, sorry I have not posted anything to the Blog as it was the holidays and everything, my kids made out like bandits, I got some socks and shirts.... but I digress.

My army is a bit different then the other's that are posting here. Since I really have vast array of models from all nationality, I thought, why don't I help a budding player in my area and get his army completed. So without further adieu, I would like to introduce you to the Waffen SS Army I am painting for my friend Sam Liebert.

Same sent me a mystery box chock full of infantry and vehicles. I apologize for the dark pictures, but my office/hobby room is being used for storage that I am soon going to rectify.

First off we have Sam's Infantry. There are about 50'ish soldiers, including a mortar, MMG team, and sniper team. There is also a FT team in there and a mix mash of K-98 rifles, MP40's and STG44's. The miniatures are a mix of Warlord Games Waffen SS and BlackTreeDesign Waffen SS.

Notice a few of them came off their base washers in transit, but that is to be expected after the long trip.

Next came the vehicles. Sam gave me a Warlord Resin JgPz38t AKA the Hetzer. The Barrel having taken damage in route of shipping, again, as expected.

Another vehicle that he included was the SdKfz 251/10.

Finally was a Early War 6RAD that he won in a tournament as best Axis General with a Donor army when he first got into the game. Rough looking, I hope it comes out in the painting.

I shall now delve in and update my part of the Blog. Keep your heads down.
